A little late to this but I’ve been going through old notifications from while I was gone.
Here’s the colors in light and dark theme, and at the bottom are two different options we were deciding on for the fan-made titles category. Pink won out over purple. Also this is missing the species tag color which was added later.

A tag can be assigned a category, which changes their background color, and all tags of a particular category are grouped together in the tags section of an image.
For the most part, they just enhance the clarity with which tags are presented to users, and rarely are something users have to interact with - except to point out new characters, new species, and new fan-creations to get them added to those respective categories.
Tag categories are only loosely and indirectly documented. Their existence, and that you can use it as a parameter for searching for tags, is noted at the bottom of the tag list/tag search page. The current list of categories in use is listed on the API documentation page, of all places… Likewise, you can find what category (if any) a particular tag is assigned via the two API endpoints that return tag-response or by inspecting the page source and looking for the data-tag-category attribute of the span representing each tag displayed on the page.
There’s at least 1 category not listed on the API page: body-type (eg. “anthro”)
SITE THEME uncategorized body-type character content-fanmade content-official error oc origin rating species spoiler

QuirkyCapricorn

I’ve noticed various tags have different colors, so I’m curious as to what each tag color means? I haven’t been able to find a list that clarifies them. I assume that green is user-submitted tags and cyan is approved character name tags, but not sure about the rest.

Default search

If you do not specify a field to search over, the search engine will search for posts with a body that is similar to the query's word stems. For example, posts containing the words winged humanization, wings, and spread wings would all be found by a search for wing, but sewing would not be.
